The Province enacted the BC Step Code for energy efficiency into force on April 11, 2017 as a component of the Climate Action Plan. The BC Step Code is a voluntary road-map with five progressive energy conservation targets (5 steps) that support market transformation from the minimum requirements in the BC Building Code to net zero energy ready buildings. The BC Step Code establishes a set [...]

Many times we are asked about snow on solar panels and how SunPump performs in parts of Canada and cold climates. We are happy to report that in most cases SunPump will produce heat even with a fresh snow covering. There are however limitations and conditions to that answer. One of the common factors with homes in Edmonton, Kelowna, and Salmon Arm has been [...]

Energy independence is something you tend hear when talking about whole countries and their efforts to stop importing so much oil. However, for decades individual homeowners have been getting in on the act too, reducing the amount of fossil fuel they burn and/or electricity they pull from the grid. The idea is simple; to replace these external sources of energy with renewable energy that is generated on-site [...]

In a perfect world, if you were buying a new solar heating system you could look on the manufacturer's website and read: "Solar heating savings: our system will save you $500 per year and pay for itself after 6 years." Of course, things aren't that simple. This is because figuring out how much a new heating system will save you compared to your old system mostly depends on [...]

Solar heat pumps are high-efficiency home heating systems that have left energy enthusiasts dumbfounded that nobody invented them sooner. Solar heat pumps combine two proven technologies together (solar thermal panels and a heat pump), creating a home heating system greater than the sum of its parts. Most people are familiar with solar thermal panels (they capture heat from the sun for space or hot water heating), and even if you've never [...]

Whether you're sick of expensive bills, you want a more comfortable home or you just hate knowing that your system isn't efficient, there are lots of ways to optimize your home heating system. The heating system you use (and how you use it) can have a big effect on how your home feels. Comfort isn't just about keeping the thermostat high - its about creating an environment where [...]

Make no mistake about it, we are living in strange times when it comes to energy production. After decades of being dominated by big oil and gas, today the renewable energy sector is thriving in countries right around the world. Part of the reason for this clean energy success over fossil fuels has been the innovation and improvements made to solar, wind and other renewable technologies [...]

Recently on the Solar Blog we talked about three different ways a solar thermal heating system can both save and earn you money. Today we are going to focus on just one of these areas in more detail by examining just how solar adds tens of thousands of dollars to a home's value. In our experience here at SunPump, many people have come to expect savings on [...]

Saving the environment one rooftop solar panel at a time sounds great, but really homeowners are just as concerned with how their renewable energy system will save or make them money (or both!). Solar energy - both solar PV for electricity and solar thermal heating - make for great ways to achieve both of these goals, offering homeowners excellent financial incentives and rewards while helping the environment. Installing solar thermal [...]

Are you satisfied with your home's energy efficiency? If the answer is no, then according to a Demand Institute study, you are actually a part of the majority. Their survey of over 10,000 homeowners offers a comprehensive overview of what homeowners want from their homes, as well as what they are unsatisfied with. Topping of the list of things homeowners were unsatisfied with was their homes' energy efficiency. [...]

Many of you may already be familiar with Canada's Energuide rating system for homes. It's essentially a government operated rating system that determines how energy efficient your home is. It's a great resource, and something that is still probably underused by homeowners here in Canada. Back in my home country of Ireland, we have a similar evaluation system, albeit with one major change; if you're [...]

Whether you are a D.I.Y. genius or someone tends to hire a whole team of construction workers to do the work for you, when building a home there are a lot of decisions that need to be made. You're likely to have a strict budget and short timeframe for getting everything finished. And yet somehow, even when you thoroughly plan for every eventuality, obstacles and challenges will still spring [...]

Solar Hot Water Heating Systems

For Green Contractors who need to set their building apart, SunPump is solar hot water heating system for radiant floors and water heating with the lowest capital and operating cost on par with non-renewable energy. Unlike solar photovoltaics, SunPump works Night & Day as a clean alternative to boilers.
